Memorial Day is a day of remembrance for all those brave men and women who have answered our nation's call to defend the freedoms so precious to each and every one of us. While many think of this day as the three-day weekend before summer starts or the day when all the big sales occur, take just a small moment to think about the real meaning of Memorial Day. Freedom isn't free; just look at all the veteran cemeteries spread across our country where those who are resting have paid the price for the freedom we enjoy today. Think about all the brave soldiers, sailors, airmen and Marines who have answered the call; the thousands upon thousands who have passed into history taking their stories and hopes and dreams along with them. They were the brave who dared to take that stand, which played a part, no matter how big or small, in guaranteeing our freedom. Consider for a moment why people from all over the world want to come to America. The answer is freedom. It is political, social, economic; the right to act or speak or think without restraint. It is a fundamental human value, worthy of defending and certainly worthy of paying homage to those who have done so on behalf of us who enjoy it today. While as many as 25 cities claim to have been the place of origin for Memorial Day, Waterloo, New York was proclaimed by President Johnson as the official birthplace of Memorial Day in 1966 recognizing an event that began on May 5, 1866. By the early 1900s the day began to be celebrated on May 30. In 1971, Memorial Day was officially changed to the last Monday in May as a means to have another three day Federal holiday. In December 2000, Congress passed the National Moment of Remembrance Act to encourage the people of the United States to give something back to their country which provides them so much freedom and opportunity and encourages a National Moment of Remembrance at 3 pm local time for a minute of silence. Take just a minute on this day to remember those veterans who have gone before and to thank those veterans who are still with us today. ~ Dick Bentley, Four Seasons Veterans Roll of Honor COMMUNItY NEwS | FOUR SEASONS BREEZE | MAY 2014 5 4 FOUR SEASONS BREEZE | MAY 2014 | CONtACt INFORMAtION The Lodge 1518 Four Seasons Cir., Beaumont 92223 • Open daily, 7 am - 9 pm Office .........................................................................(951) 769-6358 Fax .............................................................................(951) 769-6514 Movie Line.................................................................(951) 769-4928 The Salon...................................................................(951) 769-6997 The Bistro ..................................................................(951) 769-0717 Potrero Gatehouse .....................................................(951) 769-4131 eucLid ManageMenT corporaTe office 195 North Euclid Avenue, Suite 100 • Upland, CA 91786 Office .........................................................................(909) 981-4131 Emergency after hours ...........................................(909) 981-4131 Fax .............................................................................(909) 981-7631 E-mail ............................ customerservice@euclidmanagement.com K. hovnanian Customer Service .........................................http://khov.com/warranty 877-832-6231 • E-mail: Service123@khov.com Mail dues payment to: K.

Three candidates ran for two openings on the Board. Treasurer Wayne Staples and President Jacque Sneddon ran for re-election and challenger Barbara Kwiatkowska-Amerton sought a first term. Under the election procedure required by the CC&Rs, the homeowners' ballots were counted on April 22 and the district delegates cast their votes at the HOA's Annual Meeting on April 24 — too late to be reported in this edition of the Breeze. In delegate districts where a majority of the homeowners voted, the delegate was required to cast all the district's voting power in same proportion as those votes cast. In districts without a majority, the delegate was free to vote the district's entire voting power as he or she saw fit. The two candidates with the most delegate votes were elected. Four members of the seven-member Board are appointed by builder K. Hovnanian Homes. That will continue until build- out, when all seven will be elected by homeowners. Board Vice-President and Secretary Loren DuChesne has a year left on his term. The June edition of the Breeze will report the election results. lAnD oF thE FrEE, homE oF thE BrAvE Connie Cordero, Four Seasons Resident Independent Beauty Consultant (562) 677-4763 • (951) 769-6817 1486 Signal Peak, Beaumont ccordero220@marykay.com • marykay.com/ccordero220 FRee Hostess GiFt! for any resident who hosts a Four Seasons Party 10% oFF! any purchase for Four Seasons resident COSMETICS
